Wales beat Lithuania in World Cup of Darts opener

Wales began their quest for a third World Cup of Darts title with a convincing win over Lithuania.

Jonny Clayton and tournament newcomer Nick Kenny beat Darius Labanauskas and Mindaugas Barauskas 4-1 on the opening day of the tournament in Frankfurt, Germany.

Wales, who are having to go through group qualifying after Gerwyn Price withdrew, lost the opening leg at the Eissporthalle, but found their stride by winning the next four in the best-of-seven format.

They will join the top ranked nations - including England, Netherlands, Northern Ireland and Scotland - in the second round if they beat Thailand to top Group C on Friday.
